HEAT STRESS
PURPOSE:
SPIG is committed to protecting the health and safety of all personnel involved in its activities as an
internal part of its business management. Heat stress is a major health hazard especially in summer
season, where climate is hot and humid with a temperature rising up to 45-degree centigrade and
relative humidity reaching up to 70 to 80% in some parts of the country where we operate. This hot
and humid climate creates a potentially dangerous situation for those exposed to the heat The
company approach to protecting the health of its personnel in such areas is to provide a safe
working environment by minimizing their exposure to such hot and humid conditions and its adverse
health effects. In order to achieve this objective, we follow the basic occupational health and
industrial hygiene principle i.e Recognition, Evaluation and Control.
Scope:
GLOBE GAS EQUIPMENTS INDUSTRY PVT. LTD. Heat prevention and management guidelines
addresses heat stress identification, evaluation and control to implement to reduce various effects of
heat stress-ranging from heat cramps, heat syncope, heat exhaustion and heatstroke among the
workers.
Prevention Guidelines:
The primary hazard to be controlled is a heat-related illness. There are three primary illnesses
associated with excess heat strain on the body that this document will address. They are heat
cramps, heat exhaustion, and heatstroke. When the human body cannot maintain the internal body
temperature or electrolyte balance, illness can develop from the heat cramps to heat exhaustion and
finally to heatstroke. There are two major factors affecting body temperature when working in hot
environments.
Establish a complete heat illness prevention program, provide training about the hazards leading to
heat stress and how to prevent them, provide a lot of cool water to workers close to the work area,
at least one pint of water per hour is needed.
Modify work schedules and arrange frequent rest periods with water breaks in shaded or air-
conditioned areas, gradually increase workloads and allow more frequent breaks for workers new to
the heat or those that have been away from work to adapt to working in the heat (acclimatization),
Designate a responsible person to monitor conditions and protect workers who are at risk of heat
stress, consider protective clothing that provides cooling.
Any equipment’s use for hoisting works shall be certified by the third-party inspector prior to its full
operations. Any types of lifting equipment’s must be operated by the certified and competent
personnel in compliance to the instructions provided by the manual procedures. All works involving
the use of crane should be planned and rigging study should be carried out to ensure that.
Follow the safety procedures before commencing the hoisting and lifting works.
The capacity of the crane should be ascertained before using. Brakes should be checked while lifting
critical load and adjusted if needed.
Carry out a functional test of the hoist switches, to ON and OFF, operate UP and DOWN then note if
it’s the response.
Provide adequate barricade and signage to avoid other workers entering the area where lifting
operations is on progress in the factory and sites as well.
Safe working load of any mobile crane depends on:
(d) Radius of rotation while lifting the load, inclination of boom to the vertical
(f) The safe working load is generally tabulated in the load chart of the crane. Sometimes crane are
de-rated due to defects in welding, bend in angle, bracings and condition of clutch, brakes etc
(g) The load is the total load hung from the rope sheaves of the boom including the weight of hook
block, ropes/sling etc
It is very important that the subcontractors and suppliers follow and maintain the approved
Housekeeping plan.
Housekeeping means there is a place in everything, and everything is in its proper place. It is
everybody’s business to observe it in the workplace. Housekeeping is also important it lessens
accidents and related injuries and illnesses; it, therefore, improves productivity and minimizes the
direct and indirect cost of accidents/illnesses.
Sweep up and remove daily all kinds of waste e.g. packing material, cotton waste, grinding wheels,
FRP scrap, etc. leave clear space around storage and ensure unobstructed access to firefighting
purpose and emergency evacuation. SPIG shall ensure good housekeeping at site by regular
monitoring of the worksite by supervision and providing training and the importance of
housekeeping. Waste container provided for at site and an office area for collecting the waste
generated.
Temporary electrical cables shall be so installed as not to cause a tripping hazard to personnel, nor
be liable to Mechanical damage by the equipment.
Return all surplus material to the stockpile at the completion of your job.
Do not leave tools and materials where they will create a hazard for others. Put them in the gang
box or return them to the tool room.
Wipe up spilled liquids immediately. If you cannot handle the problem, notify your supervisor so that
he can arrange for the necessary clean up.
Keep change rooms clean. Do not let soiled cloths, food scarps, and soft drink bottles accumulate. If
drinking cups are us deposit them in the containers provided. Also place sandwich wrappers, paper
bags and others trash in these containers.
